Today, we all get to aim our confetti and cupcake cannons at the West Coast for MISFIT JENNY!!!!!!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY HON!!!!!!!!

Jenny's one of my eleven most favorite Misfits in large part because of her BEAUTIFUL words. Lyrical, dark, and magical, the descriptions in her last book, THE RIVER REMEMBERS, had me seeing my beloved Ohio in whole new ways. Every time she described the late autumn fog rolling in or something else that I had thought was pretty boring, the prose made me do this:

Not to mention the creepy stuff she writes. It's appropriate this Misfit's birthday is the day after Halloween, because she has an awesome handle on the creepy and the gross. Whenever I read about her villain, Patrick, I was all

But the absolute greatest thing about Jenny, to me at least, is what a supportive CP and friend she is. She's always had faith in me and my writing, and never failed to tell me all about it. On more than one day, her emails have left me all

So everyone wish our girl Misfit Jenny the happiest of birthdays, and the BEST YEAR EVER!!!!!
